apparently Coach Rod from WVU made some comments off the record to some reporters at his press conference yesterday that he was highly impressed with the way OSU went about recruiting Gwaltney. This was said in contrast to the way Petey Carroll went about things.
From what I'm told Rodriguez had high praise for Tressel and staff and their professionalism and their desire for Jason to make the choice that he felt was best for him and that he had their support as a young man either way. Also, OSU did not invoke negative recruiting tactics but instead focused on the positives of the OSU opportunity.
Petey, however, only wanted what was best for Jason as long as what it matched what was best for Petey.....and he went negative from the get go on WVU and OSU.....and in the end was less than gracious with Jason once he found out Jason was going to stick to his original commitment to WVU.
